Home Economics Groups of domestic-minded pas- sengers met daily to study home economics. Maxine Frederick is seen leaving home wearing the suit she made in Clothing 4, and Betty Jane Tucker steps up in the dress she de- signed and made. Virginia Strzynski, Eleanor Kluck, Clara Diel, Harriet Wahl, and Lillian Clement prepare for a party in the ship ' s galley. Catherine Nason pins a hem for Ruth Miller, Clara Anspach and Anna Skorski stitch at the machines, and Dorothy Curtis takes a tuck in Nor- ma Block ' s hat while Doris Love does handwork. Maybelle Rempert straightens the collar of the dress she made for little Nancy K. Ure. Hulda Boese completes a blouse.

Music Our sixty-four piece marine band, re- splendent in the new uniforms purchased through last year ' s Band Bounce, comes to attention a moment before boarding the good ship Arthur Hill to embark on the 1938 voyage. Third and first hour band classes tune up for their next public appearance. Tracy Ellis directs the fourth hour or- chestra class. Passengers alternate di- recting. Fifth and second hour choir members rehearse some songs, possibly for the Band Bounce. The a cappella choir, in its Blue and Gold robes, sails along on the high C ' s in the Band Bounce. Rosalie Nagel, Stanley Marks, and Bill Stone are president, vice-president, and secretary-treasurer, respectively, of the BOC Club, consisting of passen- gers seriously interested in music. Each cruise musically inclined marin- ers combine their talents and present one of the highlights of the voyage, the Band Bounce, given this year at the South Intermediate School. Legends 57
